INTRODUCTION, 

At the sale of the Libraries of the late 
Hon. Teunis G. Bergen, Antiquarian and Genealogist and 
his son the late Van Brunt Bergen, which was conducted 
by the American Art Association on Tuesday and Wednesday, 
March 5th and 6th, 1918, I purchased a number of manu- 
scripts, notes, charts and note books compiled by the 
late Teunis G. Bergen. 

Among thea was a qu-jitity of material relating 
to Early Kings County Fraiilios, much of which was not 
only unpublished but unprocurable elsewhere. In many 
cases complete genealogies were found. To make this 
material available for Genealogical Libraries and for 
the descendants of these families I an editing and 
publishing it in this form.

Notes by the Editor. 

The Rev. Vincentiue Antonides was born in 1670. He was Minister 
of the Reformed Church in Bergen in Vriesland, the Netherlands previous to 
his coming to America in 1705. The Classis of Amsterdam sent him to 
America to take charge of the Reformed Churches of Kings County. Diffi- 
culties in church affairs gave him no end of trouble for many years, as 
part of his charge had called the Rev. Bernardus Freeman. After a long 
dispute the matter was settled by Antonide6 and Freeman becoming asso- 
ciate Ministers. Dr. Corwin in the Manual of the Reformed Church IV. 
Edition says, "Upon his arrival he (Antonides) found this field occupied 
by Freeman under license from Cornbury (Governor), -who fermented the 
trohble in the Dutch Churches of Long Island. He was treated with 
great discourtesy by Cornbury, yet he boldly performed his duties at 
the risk of arbitrary imprisonment by the Governor. After yielding 
many points to Freeman for the sake of peace, the troubles partially 
ceased. The Classis of Amsterdam sustained Antonides and condemned 
Freeman through all the troubles." 

Speaking of the Antonides-Freeman Controversy, the American 
Church History page 127 says (in volume dealing with Reformed Church), 
"The feeling of the Dutch portion of the community concerning not only 
the Ministry Act, but any interference of the Governor in church af- 
fairs, is seen in the expression of the people on Long Island. VThen in 
1705 Bernardus Freeman attempted to take charge of the churches on Long 
Island by license from Governor Cornbury, he was stoutly resisted by the 
people, and his acts declared null and void.
